South away from the Imperial Jinling City.

Gao Biliang was wearing regular clothes, standing at the door of King Zhou's mansion, with some hesitation in his eyes, looking at Zhou Budo, who was a little surprised.

"Director Gao?"

Zhou Budo was a little puzzled, there should be no intersection between him and Gao Biliang in his memory, why did it come to the day when his group set off today, but Gao Biliang appeared at the door of his house without saying a word.

And it looks like he's just waiting for himself.

"Gao Yuliang, director of the First Division of Zhijin, has met His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhou."

Gao Biliang humbly and politely bowed his hand to Zhou Budo, bent down slightly, and the hesitation in his eyes disappeared instantly after seeing Zhou Budo.

Zhou Budo nodded ignorantly and asked

"I don't know what happened when Director Gao arrived today?"

Gao Biliang chuckled and took a breath, and then looked at Zhou Budo with some gentle eyes, and said quite seriously

"I'm here to visit His Royal Highness the Prince, and Liang has only one thing to entrust."

Zhou Budo's eyes widened in surprise, Gao Biliang's words made him even more puzzled, thinking that you are the director of the First Division of the Golden Division, and you hold the power of the Yamen of the Golden Division, how can you have something to invite me to a powerless child.

But after a long time of dealing with people, Zhou Budo's reply was still very humble.

"If the director has something to say, he can speak directly, listen to it without doubt, if he can help if he is not suspicious, he will definitely be able to."

Gao Yuliang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and his expression slowly stopped being nervous, to be honest, if it weren't for this incident, how could he pull his face down and Zhou Budo such a ten-year-old doll.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is Hongliang, and for His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, this matter is just a matter of doing it casually, and it must not cost His Royal Highness the Prince of the World to bother him."

After saying this, Gao Yuliang continued with some bitterness on the corner of his mouth

"Liang pleads, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World should not let others make trouble with Wang Peng, Liang knows that what Wang Peng did that day was really offensive to His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, which is really a big crime, but Liang hopes that His Royal Highness the Prince can temporarily put aside the matter with Wang Peng for the sake of the overall situation."

Zhou Budo frowned when he heard this, he would never have thought that Gao Biliang would come to visit him today because of such a thing.

The farce between Wang Peng and the Wang family that day, Zhou Budo had left it behind not long after the incident, but now that he thinks about it, Zhou Budo is still a little dissatisfied with Wang Peng's remarks and the arrogance of the Wang family.

However, looking at Gao Biliang lowering his posture to plead with himself, Zhou Budo thought about it, and finally nodded slightly and said

"This matter, Lone can no longer care about it, but, Director Gao, until the point, Lone hopes that the young master of the Wang family and Director Wang will act in the future and grow a heart, Lone can not care, but if the father and son meet other people in the future, others will not necessarily let go of this matter as easily as Lone."

Gao Biliang was overjoyed when he heard this, and Gong Ji bowed to Zhou Budo, he naturally heard the strong dissatisfaction in Zhou Budo's words and the warning to himself, but since this matter has been temporarily revealed, then he can feel at ease.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has a large number of adults, Liang knows, after Liang goes back, he will inform Wang Peng of the original words of His Royal Highness the Prince, since His Royal Highness the Prince has agreed, then Liang will retire, and will not delay His Royal Highness the Prince to set off."

Saying that, Gao Biliang made a half-salute to Zhou Budo, turned around and was about to leave, but when he was halfway through, Gao Biliang suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhou Budo as if he remembered something

"By the way, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, Liang reminds you, after going to the front line, remember, be careful of some guys dressed in black."

After speaking, Gao Biliang walked away quickly, and he didn't have a reaction that didn't care about it.

Beware of guys dressed in black?

What does Gao Biliang mean by this?

Zhou Budo's doubts that had just dissipated resurfaced in his heart because of Gao Biliang's words, is there anything wrong with the person dressed in black?

Forget it, I'll ask the others about this matter later, and let Lao Zhang take me to the palace first.

Today is the day when Zhou Budo and his party are about to set off, but the night before departure, Zhou Budo has received many invitations to him one after another.

The purpose of the invitation is simple.

See off.

And the palace is also the first stop of Zhou Budo's invitation this time.

The porter Lao Zhang was already ready in the carriage at this time, and when he saw his son walking over with his hands in his hands, Lao Zhang hurriedly got off the horse and got into the carriage with Zhou Budo, and opened the carriage curtain for Zhou Budo.

After Zhou Budo sat in the carriage, Lao Zhang drove the carriage towards the palace.

With the waist card of the Zhou Palace, Zhou Budo and the porter Lao Zhang easily entered the palace, and the difference from the last time was that this time the guards did not even have the meaning of checking after seeing the waist card of the Zhou Palace, and even the people with the carriage were directly released.

Of course, when he was in the outer circle of the palace, Zhou Budo was still sitting in the carriage, but after going further, Zhou Budo and the porter Lao Zhang still got out of the carriage with interest, and after the carriage was temporarily watched by a little eunuch, the porter Lao Zhang and the little eunuch stayed in place to talk to each other, and Zhou Budo followed up with his own family, skillfully walking around the path to a royal garden.

Today's Imperial Garden is a little different from the past, at least in the Imperial Garden of the past, there will not be so many white-robed guards guarding it.

Three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry guard density, no matter how you think about it, Zhou Budo came here to visit, which big man from Nanli is.

Under the leadership of his father-in-law, Zhou Budo came to the bamboo forest in the imperial garden, and the layout in this bamboo forest is also very simple.

A hut, a chess table, two small chairs, that's all.

At this time, Li Dunmin, who represented the most powerful emperor of the Nanli Empire, was sitting on the side of the chess table, and after seeing Zhou Budo coming, the corners of Emperor Li's mouth rose slightly, and one hand beckoned Zhou Budo to step forward.

When Zhou Budo arrived in front of Emperor Li, he was about to kneel down and salute, Emperor Li said with a smile

"You don't need to salute, this is not in the court, I have an uncle-nephew relationship with you, and here, there are no ministers, some are just an uncle and a nephew."

Zhou Budo sat on the chair on the other side of the chess table under the instructions of Emperor Li, and then lowered his head and said nothing.

To be reasonable, even if His Majesty said such a thing, Zhou Budo was still a little afraid of his uncle.

is different from his father, although Zhou Dunyi's body is also very heavy, and because of the battle-hardened reasons, there is also a lot of murderous energy, but how can it be Zhou Budo's father, when Zhou Budo is in front of Zhou Budo, Zhou Dunyi is like an ordinary father, in addition to ordinary, there are some cuteness.

But this identity is the emperor's uncle, don't be, Zhou Budo is so unscrupulous in front of others, how poisonous he is, in front of his uncle, he is as well-behaved as a rabbit.

Especially in this case, please, uncle, there are only three people in this bamboo forest, you and me, and there is no one else.

Perhaps seeing Zhou Budo's thoughts, Emperor Lidi took out a black chess piece from the chess box with two fingers, looked at the chessboard, and asked Zhou Budo a little unintentionally

"No doubt, but can you play chess?"

"Oh, no, it won't."

Zhou Budo's body curled up into a ball, like this, it was like he was going to eat him alive in the next second from the emperor.

There was a trace of disappointment in Emperor Li's eyes, and then he threw the black chess pieces back into the chess box and glanced sideways at his father-in-law.

Then the father-in-law took out a delicate box from nowhere, carefully placed the box on the chessboard, and then took a few steps back and stood back in place.

Looking at this box, Zhou Budo looked at Emperor Li with some puzzlement.

"Open it and take a look."

It is worth mentioning that Emperor Li's clothes today are not dragon robes, let alone such graceful and luxurious clothes, what Emperor Lidi is wearing today is like a nightgown-like clothes, when he said this, with the look of Emperor Li's expression when he spoke, it looked a little lazy.

Zhou Budo obediently stretched out his hands and opened this delicate box.

However, after opening the box, the things placed in the box made Zhou Budo can't help but grow his mouth.

"This thing is something that your father used at the beginning, and then it was entrusted to me, I think about it, this thing still has to be handed over to you, and it can be regarded as returning to its original owner."

When Emperor Lidi said this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but chuckle, and when he said this, he also had some memories of it.

And inside this box is an ordinary-looking iron sword.

And the reason why Zhou Budo was so surprised was because this iron sword looked very similar to the sword that his father gave him when he first learned the sword, if it weren't for the difference in the hilt, Zhou Budo really almost thought that Emperor Li was making fun of himself.

Carefully took out the iron sword from the box, and pulled out the scabbard with one hand, and the rust on the body of the iron sword also made Zhou Budo smile bitterly.

How can the sword that got involved with his father look so tattered.

"Do you think your father's sword sucks?"

Emperor Li seemed to have guessed what Zhou Budo was thinking, and asked with interest

"Don't underestimate this sword, you little guy, this sword was the handsome sword that your father used to command the 200,000 troops of the south, and later after your father stepped down as a general, this iron sword, your father handed it over to me."

Zhou Budo's face twitched slightly, and after hearing this, he hurriedly examined the iron sword carefully.

It is true that this sword has a sense of age, but how could Zhou Budo have imagined that this iron sword was actually the handsome sword that his father ordered to leave the soldiers and horses in the south.

This means a lot.

"Your Majesty?"

"Why did you put this sword in your hands?"

"Yes, this sword represents a lot of significance, and now that it is in the hands of no doubt, it is really a little scary."

Emperor Li raised his eyebrows, raised his chin with one hand, looked at Zhou Budo, who looked as frightened as he said, and said softly

"It is only natural for a son to inherit his father's business."

As soon as these eight words came out, not only Zhou Budo's eyes widened, but even the father-in-law who was standing on the side and waiting was a little stunned after hearing these eight words.

If the words of Emperor Lidi were spread, it would not only be Jinling City at that time, but even the entire Nanli Imperial Court would have a violent shock because of these eight words.

The son inherits the father's business?

These four words have a lot of exquisiteness, first of all, this father's business, you can understand that the emperor is saying that he is sure to come down Zhou Budo the legal identity of the prince of Zhou's palace, and ensure that Zhou Budo will inherit the status of the prince in the future.

But another layer of possible meaning is the most important thing.

What is the status of this sword?

This sword was a handsome sword that commanded all the soldiers and horses of Nanli when the allied forces of the countries were besieging Nanli, and its meaning represented far beyond its own value.

If you look at it this way, will the meaning of Emperor Li's son inherit his father's business, will it be to let Zhou Budo be like Zhou Dunyi in the future, put on armor as a handsome, and order the south to leave the soldiers and horses?

It is natural that this son inheriting his father's business has become more thought-provoking, and the meaning of leaving the emperor makes people dare not think deeply.

Zhou Budo swallowed his saliva, slowly raised his head, and met Emperor Li's plain eyes, he didn't know what he should answer at this time, and he didn't know whether he should put this sword back in the box.

"Take it, and return it to its original owner."

Emperor Li looked at Zhou Budo's dilemma, and couldn't help laughing, he just likes to tease children like this.

Seeing that Zhou Budo's palm trembled a little and held the sword in his hand, Emperor Li rubbed his temples and said lazily

"Alright, stand down, I'm tired."

When Zhou Budo stood up from the chair, his legs were trembling, and just as Zhou Budo was about to walk out of the bamboo forest, he suddenly left the emperor and said

"Come back alive."

After Zhou Budo walked out of the imperial garden, the clothes on his body were completely wet with cold sweat.

The ghost knows if he just walked through the door of the ghost gate and left the emperor, which really made Zhou Budo mention any courage.

"Hey, don't you doubt it?"

Suddenly, an exclamation pulled Zhou Budo out of fear, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was Li Shangyin, the fifth prince.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince."

When Li Shangyin ran towards Zhou Budo, Zhou Budo bowed respectfully to Li Shangyin, but this salute, Zhou Budo's body was still a little trembling.

This time, Li Shangyin didn't care about Zhou Budo's salute to him, but first noticed the fine sweat on Zhou Budo's forehead, and asked with some doubts

"No doubt, what's wrong with you? Why do you sweat so much? ”

Zhou Budo rolled his eyes weakly, then put one hand around Li Shangyin's body, and pulled Li Shangyin towards the front, although he forgot where to go on the road in front of him, but now it is better to get farther and farther away from this imperial garden as soon as possible.

"Oh no, no doubt, what the hell is wrong with you?"

Zhou Budo stopped at this time, breathed a long sigh of relief, slowly calmed down, and told Li Shangyin that he had just gone to the Imperial Garden to see his father, but the matter of the sword in his hand, Zhou Budo directly omitted it.

After hearing Zhou Budo say this, Li Shangyin burst out laughing, pointed at Zhou Budo's face with one hand, laughed, and after laughing for a long time, he suppressed his laughter, but he still couldn't help it when he spoke.

"No, no doubt, aren't you just seeing your father, why did you scare you, hahaha, why did you scare you like this, I really laughed to death, hahahahahaha."

Zhou Budo glanced at Li Shangyin, he didn't want to complain about this guy.

Damn, it's like you're not afraid of your father, and I don't know who was afraid of that in front of me last time.

"Okay, okay, don't laugh at you, by the way, don't doubt that you should leave for the front line today, I don't have anything to say, so let's do it, the third brother seems to be on the front line now, it just so happens that the third brother still owes me a personal favor, and when the time comes, don't doubt that if you have any trouble, go to my third brother for help."

Li Shangyin patted Zhou Budo's shoulder quite generously, but in exchange for it, it was just another roll of Zhou Budo's eyes.

You can't understand what this guy says, the front line, there are three front lines now, how do I know which front line the three princes give to, besides, the three frontline battlefields this time are all long fronts, even if you are lucky enough to be in the same direction as the three princes, the ghost knows if you can touch it at that time.

"I have to get it, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first, and I'll go to the study to find you when I come back."

Zhou Budo really didn't want to stay in the palace for a second now, and after a few words with Li Shangyin, Zhou Budo spread his legs like a rabbit, trotting left and right all the way to the doorman Lao Zhang.

"Hey, Your Highness, you're all right."

Lao Zhang was a little surprised, but he still thanked the little eunuch first, and then greeted Zhou Budo and got into the carriage, and after Zhou Budo sat down, Lao Zhang turned his head to look inside the carriage and asked

"Your Royal Highness, where are you going next?"

"Sword Pavilion."

The porter Lao Zhang sighed, and his face did not show any abnormality because of the name, and he turned around and drove towards the outside of the palace in the carriage.

The fame of this place in the Sword Pavilion may not be very famous in the ears of the people of Nanli, but in the ears of the sword cultivators in the world today, this place is the place where the person they worship lives.

And that person, that is, Nanli Sword Saint, the wind is uneven.

The sword saint wanted to see himself, and Zhou Budo was quite surprised, because before this sword saint met him, Zhou Budo had always been very longing, but after meeting, he first looked at Feng Buping's sick appearance, and then he handed over the sword book to his own hands, and then it was gone.

Anyway, I don't have any other memories of the impression.

After leaving the palace, the porter Lao Zhang drove the carriage all the way to the west, through the crowd, at this time it was also broad daylight, and the main road of Jinling City was also crowded with people, and it was also thanks to the fact that the big guys in this carriage knew it, and it was the carriage of the Zhou Palace, so they consciously made way of a road, otherwise, who knows if there will be some unnecessary incidents because of this.

It didn't take long to come to the door of the Sword Pavilion, Lao Zhang's finger knocked on the window of the carriage, and Zhou Budo bent down and walked out of the carriage, jumped out of the carriage, and walked to the door of the Sword Pavilion.

Kumu was also holding the fish intestine sword at this time, standing at the door waiting for Zhou Budo.

"Brother Kumu."

"Well, the son of the world comes with me."

Kumu nodded slightly, and then led Zhou Budo into the Sword Pavilion.

Zhou Budo came to such a place as the Sword Pavilion for the first time in all these years, and after entering the Sword Pavilion, seeing that many swordsmen were in full swing fighting with each other, Zhou Budo frowned, and whispered to the bitter wood road walking in front of him

"Brother Kumu, didn't Lord Sword Saint accept three apprentices? Why are there so many swordsmen in this Sword Pavilion practicing? ”

"Oh, these people are not Shizun's apprentices, these people are all sword cultivators of the Sword Pavilion, they are not taught by the Master, but they can look through some of the various kendo classics stored in the Sword Pavilion, and if the Master is free, he will occasionally give them a few words."

Listening to Kumu's patient explanation to himself, Zhou Budo understood a little.

It seems that these people are all sword cultivators who came to stay here voluntarily because of their uneven reputation.

But it doesn't hurt them to think about it.

Because just along the way, Zhou Budo passed by a spacious hall, and there were several bookshelves on the left and right sides of this hall, and I thought that these bookshelves should be the place where the kendo classics were stored.

With so many kendo classics, plus the opportunity to get the mention of the Sword Master, this is a sure-fire deal.

Immediately afterwards, Kumu took Zhou Budo up the stairs on several floors, and finally stopped outside a door.

Kumu stretched out his finger and gently knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Kumu opened the door at this time, and then stood on the side and motioned for Zhou Budo to go in.

Although Zhou Budo was a little confused, he still understood what Kumu meant, and when he walked into the house, Kumu closed the door again outside.

Just as Zhou Budo turned his head to take a look, Feng Buping, who was sitting on the recliner, spoke

"No doubt, sit down."

"Oooh."

Zhou Budo casually found a place and sat down obediently.

In the face of the fear of leaving the emperor, and in the face of uneven winds, Zhou Budo obviously seemed less restrained.

"No doubt, this is going to the front line, there are dangers, remember to protect yourself, although Mu'er's cultivation is good, but on the battlefield, after all, it can't always protect you, so, be careful in everything, you know?"

Listening to what Feng Buping said to himself in a somewhat teaching tone, Zhou Budo nodded vigorously and replied with a smile

"I don't doubt it, I don't doubt it."

Feng Buping opened his eyes, and at this time, his eyes when he looked at Zhou Budo were full of the loving eyes of the old man looking at his grandchildren.

"There is no doubt that your father once saved Nanli from fire and water, and he was a hero of Nanli, and you are not bad, speaking of which, your father was not as good as you in some places when he was your age."
